  1. Jun 1, 2020 · Ammonia nitrogen (ammonia or ammonium) is widely present in natural waters and can significantly affect aquatic flora and fauna. It plays an extremely important role in human production and health as well as ecosystem stability.

  2. Oct 1, 2019 · Ammonia nitrogen, consisting of un-ionized ammonia and ammonium, is a key parameter for studying the nitrogen cycle and indicating water quality. The measurement of these parameter concentrations is vital for the adequate monitoring of aquatic environments.

  3. Ammonia is a colorless, pungent gaseous compound of hydrogen and nitrogen that is highly soluble in water. It is a biologically active compound found in most waters as a normal biological degradation product of nitrogenous organic matter (protein).

  4. What Affects it in Water? Natural factors that can affect the concentration of ammonia include: algal growth, decay of plant or animal material, and fecal matter. Other aspects of nitrogen cycling can also affect the amount of ammonia present.

  5. Jan 1, 2021 · In water, ammonia go through complex biochemical transformations constituting the Nitrogen cycle mainly facilitated by ammonia-oxidizing bacteria and ammonia-oxidizing archea. Applicability of molecular biology techniques nowadays have the potential to characterize and understand the ammonia oxidizers’ community and their mechanisms entirely.

  6. Dec 22, 2021 · Standard Test Methods for Ammonia Nitrogen In Water. Significance and Use. 4.1 Nitrogen is a nutrient in the environment and is necessary to sustain growth of most organisms. It exists in several forms such as nitrate, nitrite, organic nitrogen such as proteins or amino acids, and ammonia.
